           On June 26, 2000, two scientists, called Francis Collins and Craig Venter, told the world that they
    could now read the whole "map" of the human body: DNA. DNA is something that everybody has, and
    it tells the body what to do. DNA is the reason that we look like our mother and father, because we get
    some of their DNA to make our own.    
           People have been trying to understand the human body for a long time. In 1860, Gregor Mendel
    discovered a special reason why we look the same as other people in our family. It is because of small
    things named "genes" in our body. In 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick made another discovery
    and found out that those small parts are real messages written in the DNA with a special language.
           In 1961, Marshall Nirenberg and Johann Matthaei found a message in DNA showing how DNA
    tells the cell (细胞) to build its parts. Scientists have now found all the words in the DNA map, but we
    still do not understand what they all do. By understanding what just one "word" means, we can help
    save more people from several illnesses.
           Most people hope that this will help make better medicine and help sick people. Other people worry
    that when people begin to know more words and find out lots of other information, we might use it in a
    wrong way, just to make people more attractive, or stop sick people from getting jobs. Man would have
    to meet a lot of trouble if DNA technic wasn’t limited in use.

    On 26th January, the biggest earthquake（地震）in India took the lives of 25000 people. In the morning, when everybody was enjoying holiday, earthquake began. It was about 7.5 on the Ritcher scale. “There is nothing left between the sky and the earth any more. Everything has been pulled down,” said one of the villagers alive. “There is no water, no food and no one has come to help.”

    Nobody died in Pakistan, a country next to India. The City of Lahore was lucky. In Lahore American school, where I was studying, all of the students were safe. They were on the field, so most children didn’t feel anything. The earthquake was felt by the teachers that were on the second floor. However, though Mrs Young was also on the second floor, she didn’t feel anything. She didn’t know what happened until a teacher told her about it. Those teachers who were on the other floors had different feelings. Mr Emond, the maths teacher from Australia, said that when the earthquake started he thought there was something wrong with him, but then another teacher said that it was an earthquake. After those words Mr Emond felt better. Mrs Davis and

    Mr Frost didn’t feel anything either.

    My mother didn’t feel anything. She didn’t even know that it was an earthquake till she saw a shaking (moving from side to side) light. My dad saw the computer shaking and then he looked out of the window and saw many people going out.

    1.People use “Ritcher scale” to tell ______.

    A．where the earthquake takes place

    B．when the earthquake takes place

    C．how serious the earthquake is

    D．how long the earthquake lasts

    2. We learn that ______ from the sentence “There is nothing left between the sky and the earth any more.”

    A．India is a large country

    B．the Indian people had nothing after the earthquake

    C．there is no tall building in India

    D．the earthquake in India was serious

    3. The city of Lahore is ______.

    A．in India

    B．in America

    C．in Pakistan

    D．in Australia

    4. Which one is true?

    A．I was with my parents when the earthquake happened.

    B．The earthquakes in the city of Lahore wasn’t serious.

    C．People in the City of Lahore were frightened when they knew if was an earthquake.

    D．The teachers in Lahore American school were afraid of the earthquake.

         On a cold winter day, a fox told Mother Bear that he would teach her how to fish. For she wanted to
